ALL THINGS DEVOUR - MASTERPOST
Samsa is a bastard. A noble bastard, but a bastard nonetheless. To make matters worse, her fool of a father got himself killed — burned to nothing but black bone by a dragon he attempted to steal — just a year past. Seething under the weight of her humiliations, Samsa knows — and as her aunt so often reminds her — the only way she'll get what she desires — respect, power, fear — is to fight for it. Tooth and claw. Luckily, as a child of House Vesgar — an ancient family of Valyrian bloodmages — neither are in short supply. Trystane is a ghost. Stained by an unsettling presence, a wandering mind, and strange dreams, he finds companionship only in Princess Helaena, who will soon be wed to her brother, and his father, Larys Strong, in the quiet of the library during lessons. The truths of his visions elude him, until he meets Samsa — a face he has seen in the harrowing depths of his dreams more times than he can count.
